Annual Meeting of Huron
Federation of Agriculture
Over 200 memters and guests at-
tended the annual insetinge of the
Huron Coeetty Federat:on ore Agri-
culture, which was • held ie the
Town Hall on Tuesday ,efternoon
November 14th. An interesting Pro-
g.rarn, featuting addresses by the
Hon .1. L. Ilsley, Ot!avva, minister or
finance and O. GrabannI' Tofonto,
director !of agricultural representa-
tives in Ontario waS, beaecl.4Iarry L.
Sturdy of East Wawanosh land Rus-
sell Bolton of McKillop, lvere re-
elected president 'and Vice-Ipresident
respeetfully of the Federation.
Mr. Ilsley, introduced biselaugli
Hill of Goderich, IIcliscussee phases
of Canada's financing, outlining the
methods of taxation and borrowing.
"Both have been essential .., to pre-
vent inflation," the minister said.
The price ceilings werepest into ef-
fect in the fall of 1941 ad almost
every day there wa's someone who
complained because the eeilings do
effect everyone. Mr. Riley said
the, main idea behind ceiling plias
is "to lay a firm 'foundation for the
post-war era." ,
Declaring that he, considered the
policies of the govetnnierit sound,
Mr. Ilsley urged that Canadians can
help the government make the
country a better place in which to
live by co-operating in every pee -
Miele way.
Canada has finaneed its. war ef-
fort on borrowed moneyand on tax-
ation to the extent of 94 eier cent.
Fifty per cent of the total; expendi-
tures have been made with money
raised by taxation and economists
have agreed the policy is eound.'The
&lief avenues a money from taxa-
tion are income and exceee profits
tastes. 'Speaking of the excessive
profits tax, Mr, Daley said it has
been found that in some Ai:tames
production has been. discouraged,'
extravagance encouraged 4,4ma Wc
psitsgion distouraged and (ife the lite
mentioned he said expansion must
be encouraged to take cave of the
greater production that 4 going to
be needed in Canada in the post-war
period when a larger population is
bound to present itself.
Dealing with the future Mr, .119 -
ley said that income and business
.tazes are going to play an import-
ant part in Canada's finaneing
plans. Canadians at best can look
for little redactions in the income
taxes and he felt they should study
them so as to hecoine thoroughly
familiar with them.
C. D. Graham, former repreeenta-
tive of the Agricultural department
in Perth Candy was introduced by
Brum Matheson, agricultural
representative in Huron County.
Mr. Graham said he has watched
closely the progress of the Huron
Federation of Agriculture and con-
gratulated the officers and the
federation on the good work it is
doing. It has developed into one
of the strongest organizations of its
kind in the province.
Thanks of the meeting to the
speakers was voiced by Russell
Bolton who notee that it had been
a pleasure to hear Mr. Ilsley and
Mv. , Grabens.. He said that the
former had been very generous in
giving a day to the federation,
when it is a known fat that Mr.
Ilsley' carries a heavy. burden -that
of financing Canade-on his shoul-
ders. 1
In his report as president, Harr'
L. Sturdy reviewed the activities
of the federation -which showed an
increased membership of 1,058 to
1,408 during the year. He said the
federation is waiting ,developments
in the Ontario Legislature to see
how the government reacts to the
bill which will be before it respect-
ing setting aside of one fifth of a
mill in each county for •the financing
of federations,
The federation had taken the lad
in requesting a nursing system, for
Huron Courty and the council has
eolopted.it. 13ecaese of a ecamity of
nurses at present, the system has
not been started but 'it is hoped to
do so at an early d,ate.
